Long Monday (Lunch & Dinner 9.27.10)

For a rainy day I was not very productive. Usually when it's that miserable outside I can stay seated and plow through some work but my day was interrupted by a long trip to the vet and it never seemed to flow smoothly enough to get anything done. It looks like tomorrow is going to be rainy again so maybe I'll have an easier time working then.

My poor Bruce still has ear infections so we have to continue giving him his treatments until they go away – and we’ll be returning to the vet for follow-up in a couple weeks. He hates going there and so do I because it seems to take forever. I got back home around lunch time and made myself a sandwich. It was turkey, hummus and cheese on a wheat lavash with lettuce and red onion in there too. That held me over for most of the afternoon and I got what little work I could done. I made a nonfat latte then headed out to get Will and stop at the store for a few dinner items. We had pastrami sandwiches with sweet potato fries (Alexia Seasoned Waffle Cut) and baked beans. I went to Whole Foods because I wanted to be sure I was getting good quality pastrami. It was uncured but it still tasted great and I felt good giving it to Will. I wanted to make my own fries but I was cooking solo so I found these frozen ones to be easier on this night. That afternoon latte seems to be giving me a good boost of energy so I think I will try to make up for some lost time tonight and get myself in a better spot for tomorrow. I hope to have time to run in the morning so clearing some work off my plate now will make that a little easier to do. It felt like a long Monday but I’m optimistic the rest of the week won’t be like so bad!
